Nope. Porn. Sony would not allow the adult film
industry the liceses
required to produce Betamax tapes. The adult film industry could, however,
get VHS licenses that that probably drove customer demand for VHS over
Betamax. At least that's the story I heard.
I recently read a news story on the net regarding net.porn and porn on
DVDs. A Sony spokesman was quoted as saying the porn thing was a major
reason for the death of Betamax and they dang well were gonna make sure
people could license DVD for porn so DVD wouldn't go the way of Betamax.
